CALENDAR
Where natural scenery becomes one with the architecture, the theatre was built in the third century B.C by the ancient Greeks. With its perfect acoustics from any area of the auditorium, the Greeks used it for musical and drama performances. After the Romans conquered Taormina and made it a Roman colony, the theatre was expanded and renovated, used for gladiator fights and naval battles.
Since the 1950s, the Ancient Theater of Taormina has been used as an outdoor stage for various forms of entertainment, ranging from the David di Donatello award ceremonies to symphonic concerts, from opera to ballet, to theater works. and the Greek tragedies. Over the years, in addition to the main Italian singers, also artists such as: Deep Purple, Elton John, James Blunt, Kasabian, Sting, Santana have performed.
Since 1983, the Ancient Theater also hosts one of the most important Sicilian cultural events: Taormina Arte. It is a review that includes various events, divided into the Music and Dance, Theater, Exhibitions and Cinema sections. The most important event is the Taormina Film Fest, an international film festival on the occasion of which the “Silver Ribbon” prize is awarded.
